Problem with shader model 4.0

Szuri21 · #1 12-30-2008, 06:35 AM

I have the problem with the game cryostasis. When I switch on shader model 4.0 the view is displayed bad. There are distortions such as in thermovision glasses. Please Help.

My config:

PDC E2140@3.2GHz Geil 2x1GB Radeon 4870 Vista 32 BIT

No fox for the problem yet.
Wait for the new driver, or patch.
On AMD videocards only SM3 works.

Hello, I have the same problem like you. When I switch on Shader Model 4.0, I can see various kinds of colors. I have 4870x2 and the latest drivers. I wanted to make some screens, but Fraps or ATi Tools didn't capture image. So I grabbed my camera and took some photos:

You can see various kinds of colors. But, when I switch off Shader Model 4.0, everything goes OK, I don't see any colors.
One user told me, that problem is in PhysX and ATi graphics cards don't know how to work with it. So, we just hope in any kind of patch, who 'll repair this bug or wtf is it.

This problem with ATI cards is not fixed yet. Right now a can only advice to use shaders 3.0.

Yes, you right. I 'll be very happy when they release any kind of patch, who 'll repair it, because play on SH 3.0 is excruciation for my graphic card.
